We are interested in reading of the presence which can inform the absence. In architecture the form of presence is itself are existing ‘built form’ as ‘logos’. Logocentrism is described by Derrida as a “metaphysics of presence,” which is motivated by a desire for a “transcendental signified.” A “transcendental signified” is a signified which transcends all signifiers, and is a meaning which transcends all signs. And signs will necessarily contain traces of other (absent) signifiers, the signifier can be neither wholly present nor wholly absent. We follow the trace of existing cultural built form to discover the formation principal.

Dhaka as a city of fifteen million. Scarcity of public open spaces are ubiquitous. We have tried to create open public realm by lifting the program space above ground. Throughout the complex we propose to create open access on the ground level. All the buildings are fully accessible, following ANSI A117.1-2009, ADA 2010. Cafeteria and moving installation spaces were depressed from the plaza level and south end of the site and open Amphitheatre will be open to performances and screening. The auditorium is comprised of three large ones and small discussion space. The plaza is exempt from vehicular traffic. Parking entry will from south-east corner of the site. Parking were designated below ground of the program space.
